Early this year I posted my "Top Eleven" list of what I considered the best of 2007. A couple of months later I ran into two CDs that escaped my attention... both would have found themselves firmly lodged among the best five albums of the year had I heard them a bit earlier... such is the flimsy nature of the "Best of" list...The first of the magical two (I'll post about the other one within the week), was presented to me by my friend in Portland.That band, also residents of our rainy neighbors to the North, has created a brilliant piece of work... The band: MENOMENA. The album: Friend And Foe.I've listened to this album a lot and it keeps getting better and better. It's getting so I actually hear the music in my head when I'm not actually listening to it...I'm dropping three cuts on you... Do yourself a favor and drown in this strange and wonderful sonic bliss...
